Sias New Magical Chinese Garden - Scene 15

Bubbling Pond in Rock Garden

The most common water element of a Chinese garden is a pond. The pond is usually situated in the center of the garden. Larger gardens will have a lake instead of a pond. The other elements of the garden will be arranged around the pond. Some ponds have fish in them, like goldfish. In China, water symbolizes communication and dreams. A water element is also a welcome complement to the rock garden and mountains.
